“Annalize is a great provider who demonstrates compassionate care for animals. We left three dogs, two cats, two chinchillas in her care for the weekend. One of the dogs is very elderly and needs a lot of hands on care. Annalize brought it, and kept everyone cool, comfy, fed, and happy. I would recommend her highly.”

“Sebra was a great sitter! She took care of our BIG dog for 2 weeks while we were on vacation. Sebra was very communicative and sent pictures and videos of Murphy. She also had to deal with a 8-hour power outage and shoveling snow since it snowed not once, but twice, while we were gone. Her positive attitude and willingness to do whatever was needed made us comfortable leaving our pup for 2 weeks. Sebra will be our first choice to say with Murphy!”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 14; I’ve trained and cared for my golden as well as the four cats in my household. I’ve also started taking on strays! I work full time over the week and I am more than capable making any stops from work or even filling up my weekends taking care of your pet. I am very flexible with instructions if need be. I’ll take care of your dogs or cats with care and diligence. I do not have a fenced in yard, but I have a wonderful neighborhood that I can walk your pet in.

“Cortney was absolutely the best pet sitter/dog sitter we’ve ever hired. She went above and beyond to make sure our pets were comfortable while we were away. She was understanding about our cats special needs and had no trouble giving our dog Hiccup his pill every day. Cortney was very communicative with us about how our pets were doing and provided daily updates. She and her fiancé Dustin both went out of their way to spend quality time with all our pets. They even watered our plants for us :) They left our house cleaner than we left it. I would highly recommend booking Cortney for any pet sitting needs!”


About: Hi, I’m Jillian! What sets me apart from other dog sitters is how deeply I care for animals, not just as a job, but as a real passion. I love spending time with dogs, whether it’s taking them on peaceful walks or just being there to keep them company. I walk my own dog every day and regularly watch my neighbors’ dogs, treating each one like family. I also volunteer at an animal shelter, where walking and spending time with the dogs truly fills my cup. Every dog I care for gets my full attention, love, and respect, because to me, they’re more than pets; they’re companions who deserve the best. Right now I am on summer break. I am a teacher in Pennsylvania so I am pretty available most weekdays and weekends. I am also available during the day as well! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities, whether they’re in my home or yours. I care for every animal with the same attention and love I give my own dog, always keeping an eye on them, making sure they’re happy, secure, and never stressed. I take the time to understand each dog’s needs and routines so they feel safe and at ease. Whether it’s a walk, a drop in visit, or an overnight stay, you can trust that your pet is in caring, responsible hands with me.

“OUTSTANDING! Nicole exceeded our expectations! This was our first time using Rover. We were struggling to find someone to watch our 3 dogs. We contacted Nicole and she responded immediately. She was professional, punctual, and was interested in our pets' needs. We felt comfortable leaving our dogs (and our home) in her care. She communicated daily and sent adorable pictures of our dogs having fun. Two of our dogs are seniors and are picky eaters. She recorded when they ate and when one took his daily allergy medication. Nicole also left our home in spotless condition. Our experience with Nicole was phenomenal. She is absolutely amazing.”
